Actor Ranbir Kapoor brought his trademark humor to the annual Kapoor family Christmas lunch, as seen in a viral video shared by his cousin Aadar Jain.
The video shows Ranbir lighting up a Christmas cake as family members including Alia Bhatt, Agastya and Navya Nanda, Armaan and Aadar Jain gather around excitedly.
As Ranbir applies a lighter to set the rum-soaked cake ablaze, he jokingly exclaims “Jai Mata Di!” instead of the more customary ‘Merry Christmas’ greeting. His Indian twist on the tradition prompts laughter from the Kapoors and lightens up the festive mood.
Dressed in a casual black t-shirt and grey blazer, Ranbir was seen catching up with his family including his wife Alia and the newest member – his daughter Raha. Alia glowed in a black floral dress while Raha looked adorable in ponytails and a red plaid dress.
This was Raha’s first appearance at the annual Christmas celebrations that hold a special place in Kapoor family lore. Every year, several generations of the prominent film clan come together to celebrate Christmas with food, drinks, and banter.
Ranbir has been attending these reunions since childhood and is known to keep the atmosphere cheerful with his humor and spirited antics. The video of him shouting a Hindu greeting while kindling the Christmas cake perfectly encapsulates this lighter side.
Shared widely by Ranbir’s fans, the clip spread much joy online and was seen as a glimpse into the Kapoors’ warm family bonding. Most fans were delighted at little Raha’s unveiling and praised Ranbir for balancing stardom gracefully with his family values.
